Can You Survive the Scorch? The Scorch Trials Trailer Is Here!

It’s here! The trailer for The Scorch Trials, the sequel to last year’s The Maze Runner, is here! Thomas (Dylan O’Brien) and his friends – well, the ones who survived the first movie, anyway – are back as they continue to try and figure out what exactly is going on. Why were they put in the Maze in the first place? What happened to the world outside? But it doesn’t look like anyone is very forthcoming with the answers.

New apparent villain Janson (Aidan Gillen) seems willing to tell Thomas what he wants to know, but Thomas quickly discovers that the Maze was only the beginning, something the audience knew after the end of The Maze Runner. He and his friends escape, only to be confronted with the harsh reality of what the world has become – an endless desert; the Scorch.

If you’re worried about the trailer giving away too much information, don’t be. Pretty much everything you learn in the less-than-two minute tease happens in the beginning of the book. The real story is what the group goes through as they attempt to cross the Scorch, so there are plenty of surprises still in store.

Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials will be released on September 18, 2015. Check out the trailer below!
